Conduct prompt engineering, performance evaluation, and fine-tuning to improve solution effectiveness and reliability. 

Collaborate with product and platform teams to identify reusable patterns and influence roadmap based on deployment learnings. 

Customer Feedback & Support 

Serve as a technical point of contact during deployments and early adoption phases.
